This report is intended to assist buyers of floor polishers. Floor polishers are industrial appliances using a rotating base with an attached pad or brush to clean or smooth a floor's surface. Products are available as low-speed, high-speed and multi-speed models. Moreover, polishers have varying levels of automation, ranging from models that have to be manually pushed to those that the operator can ride on. Household floor polishers, vacuums, carpet shampooers and industrial power sanders are excluded from this report.
